Kids Boats – Educational Game Recognized by
Psychologists

Today a new educational app for kids – ‘Kids
Boats’ – is released. The game strives to teach kids
about the world geographical diversity and animals living there.
Game features three different types of controls, so each player
will find the most comfortable to play with.

The unique game feature is a control of a boat by blowing wind
from the mouth to the device and tilting it to steer. It delivers a
feeling of reality, so the kids can feel themselves in a role of a
real captain of the adventurous expeditions.

“Kids Boats is an acceptable way for the kids to explore
the surrounding world. The game takes your kid to the safe and
stressless environment in which he or she has an opportunity to
choose the most acceptable boat control type and play at the pace
kid likes, because there are no time restrictions. By familiarizing
with different climate situations, game develops kids’
dictionary, while control of the boat and avoidance of obstacles
strengthens concentration of attention, fine motor and problem
solving skills”, says child psychologist Daiva
Svirušyte.

Kids can choose river in one of three climate zones –
woodland, desert or arctic. In each zone they will meet
corresponding animals - some of them will be in the river, blocking
the path of paper boat. The task is to evade these animals, collect
stars and messages in the bottles. These found messages will make a
collection of all discovered animals. The game is designed for all
iOS devices and is available on the App Store.
